	PlanetMath: cone in $\mathbb{R}^3$
		The portion of the surface of the cone belonging to the conical surface is called the lateral surface or the mantle of the solid cone and the portion belonging to the plane is the base of the solid cone.
		The intersections of a solid cone and the planes parallel to the base plane are similar.
		In any cone, the line segment of a ruling between the base plane and the apex is a side line of the cone.

	CONE - LoveToKnow Article on CONE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The axis of the cone is the side about which the triangle revolves; the circle traced by the other side containing the right angle is the base; the hypotenuse in any one of its positions is a generator or generating line ; and the intersection of the axis and a generator is termed the vertex.
		An oblique cone is the solid or surface traced out by a line which passes through a fixed point and through the circumference of a circle, the fixed point not being on the line through the centre of the circle perpendicular to its plane.
		The subcontrary section of an oblique cone is made by a plane not parallel to the base, but perpendicular to the principal section, and inclined to the generating lines in that section at the same angles as the base; this section is a circle.

	Tool Tips--Cone Wrenches
		Because of their extreme thinness for the nut sizes they ht, cone wrenches must be made of especially high quality steel to stand up to the normal stresses that they will be subjected to in use.
		There is a supposedly non-rotating washer between each cone and locknut, which you might think would keep this system from working, but it does not in practice, as long as you start with a reasonably good rough adjustment.
		Because cone wrenches come in generally useful sizes, and are very light, it is often tempting to use them for other purposes, such as saddle adjustments and tightening axle nuts or even pedals.

	Cone biopsy (conization) for abnormal cervical cell changes
		A cone biopsy is an extensive form of a cervical biopsy.
		It is called a cone biopsy because a cone-shaped wedge of tissue is removed from the cervix and examined under a microscope.
		The cone biopsy may be used to diagnose the cause of the abnormal cell changes and remove the abnormal tissue at the same time.

	cone on Encyclopedia.com
		Usually separate male (staminate, or pollen) cones and female (ovulate, or seed) cones are borne on the same plant.
		Each of the numerous scales, or sporophylls, of the staminate cone bears pollen and each female-cone scale bears ovules in which egg cells are produced.
		The cones that are commonly observed are the seed cones, which are normally hard and woody although in a few the scales are fleshy at maturity.

	IDFA - History of the Ice Cream Cone
		The cone cooled in a few seconds, the vendor put some ice cream in it, the customers were happy and the cone was on its way to becoming the great American institution that it is today.
		The rolled cone was a waffle, baked in a round shape and rolled (first by hand, later mechanically) as soon as it came off the griddle.
		The second type of cone was molded either by pouring batter into a shell, inserting a core on which the cone was baked, and then removing the core; or pouring the batter into a mold, baking it and then splitting the mold so the cone could be removed with little difficulty.

	The Rods and Cones of the Human Eye
		The "blue" cones have the highest sensitivity and are mostly found outside the fovea, leading to some distinctions in the eye's blue perception.
		The "blue" cones are identified by the peak of their light response curve at about 445 nm.
		They are unique among the cones in that they constitute only about 2% of the total number and are found outside the fovea centralis where the green and red cones are concentrated.

		Cone mosaic in the fovea where the S-wave or blue cones are evident by size and density differences.
		Using special antibodies generated against cone opsins, which are the visual pigments contained within the cone, it is possible to selectively stain the short wavelength sensitive pigment- (or blue pigment) bearing cones (Fig.
		They are distinguished from other cones in the fovea by their larger inner segment diameter and their occurrence in a different mosaic than the the more numerous hexagonally packed L- and M-cones.

	PHILCO CONE-CENTRIC TUNING DIAL
		This permits the cones to be loosened, moved along the slot and tightened in the desired position in a single operation as the dial is adjusted to tune on a desired station.
		The simplest method of determining the positions at which the cones should be preset is by tuning in the particular stations to resonance, using a tuning eye, shadowgraph, vacuum-tube voltmeter (VTVM) or similar device connected to the AVC returns (AVC line), as a resonance indicator.
		When the cone is loose, rotate the handle until the station finder (dial pointer) hand is at the the station desired.

	Best Exercises for the Cone
		Usually short-waisted and long-legged, Cones benefit from abundant aerobic exercise combined with abdominal and upper-body endurance exercises, which are crucial as they strengthen and protect the back and shoulder regions.
		Cones have a propensity for tight hamstrings (just as Rulers do) and their abdominals are usually weak because Cones don't typically work on this region.
		Cones who exercise rarely develop osteoporosis in their upper bodies, but because they are more susceptible to lower-body injuries, especially hip fractures, it's important to strengthen and add some mass to their lower bodies as a preventative measure.

	Swales Aerospace - Spacecraft - I-Cone
		I-Cone is a system to provide fast, frequent, flexible, and affordable access to space for small payloads, either micro / nano satellites (dispenser function) or payloads (satellite platform function).
		The I-Cone replaces the satellite adapter during launch carrying the primary manifested space vehicle (SV) loads and uses the normally empty adapter volumes for payload and equipment (Figure 1).
		A secondary benefit of I-Cone is the fact that the I-Cone payloads, whether microsats or instruments, are transparent during the integration process.
